The other day I heard all this clanking and banging going on outside...

Picture

Later the children came scrambling into the house...excitedly exclaiming that I must come out and see their new pasture....Okay....

I honestly wasn't expecting this! They did a great job! And that's the tee-pee style barn in the corner there...

And this is how the gate hooks...pretty cool! I now know who will be moving the horses' fences around next time!

This past weekend we ended up getting all of our meat birds 'processed' over at some friends house who were all set up for it...doing their own...and offered to do ours, too. Can't beat an offer like that! The whole experience was really great...and the children were totally into all of it! I've got a slew of photos that I'm still getting loaded and organized...and will be posting all about it here and on our Green Pioneer site very soon! So stay tuned!! : D

What fun! Your children used their creative talents to set up their own pasture--wow. I used to make "houses" with 2 X 4s in the back yard when I was ten, only mine laid flat on the ground while the pasture fence and barn are three-dimensional. Well done!

Wow!! I'M impressed! What on earth did you youg'ins use to pound your posts in so well?? Fence looks GREAT. You learned some good fencing skills , helping your dad fence Baby. And do you know what?--whatever you do or whereever you go--no matter how old you get, you'll ALWAYS have that skill if you need it! Same with all the other things you're learning--skiiing, horsemanship, lawn mowing, school stuff, etc. (and I love that teepee barn)
